Four minutes . later, Blue Boy swoops down on the Kubat home father Kubat picks up Blue Boy and the pass i.nd goes to work on It. Blue Boy .Ilea home again and Mrs. Kubat travels downtown with lunch for father and son on the pass. Of course, Urban and his father have to pay their' faro home because mother rode back on the pass, but Wiry uuu b uuna viiav b Urban says the only trouble with Blue Boy Is he Is strictly a one-way bird. He won't take the pass down town. Otherwise, he Is perfect. He never tops to discuss affairs with street pigeons, flying home like a ached uled air liner. Urban says ha also makes a good substitute for a telephone. If the youh discovers he came to work without a handkerchief, or decides he'll stay downtown that night, he ends a message via Blue Boy.

Taylor was in the polit ical race today to retain his seat In the state legislature. He mailed his declaration Inst night to the secre tary of state, seeking the Republican renomlnatlon for representative. William M. McAllister, Medford at torney, had already filed for the Re publican nomination and Moore Ham ilton, Incumbent Democratc, for re nomlnatlon. As no other Republican nominees loomed today, political observers were of the belief that Mr. Taylor and Mr. McAllister, being unopposed, would walk away wtlh the nominations in the May primary. The Democratic camp seemed to be In a quandary, with the filing pe riod ending Monday and no other nominee in prospect.

Mr. Taylor first entered the legis lature through an appointment. He was appointed state representative by Gov. Julius L. Meier In 1033. to fill the vacancy created when larl B. Day resigned his house sent to be come Judge of Jackson county. In the fall of 1934 Mr. Taylor wis elected to the office and he served In the regular legislative session of 1034 and the special session of 1935. In the last session he served on those committees; constitutional law. re peal of laws, revision of laws, horti culture and banking and corporations. Mr. Taylor is a lawyer by profu sion.
